Hello,

Whenever I use an "only on release" slider on a mobile device, it never sends a message on an actual release. It seems that mobile on-release action differs from the desktop on-release.

To reproduce:

1. create an on release slider
2. run chrome -\> inspect -\> choose "responsive" or one of the mobile devices
3. grab a slider and release it

N.B. The only way to get a message generated on a mobile device is to click on a slider without dragging it.

To reproduce, you would need to provide details of the versions of  
node-red  
nodejs  
node-red-dashboard

hello,

"node-red": "0.20.8",  
"node-red-dashboard": "2.16.3",  
NODEJS\_VERSION=10.15.0

Considering the code, I believe the mobile actions like onTouchEnd should be included over here:

Thanks,
